The wireless Bluetooth technology is a reference to Harald Bluetooth, a Danish king who united Denmark and a section of Norway. Bluetooth does the same for telecommunication.
Purpose
Bluetooth was designed with low powered, short range wireless communication in mind.
Usage
Bluetooth technology is found in most modern day technology, including cell phones and video games.
Function
Bluetooth requires only a radio frequency and the software enabling it to transmit a signal to mobile devices.
Potential
One Bluetooth signal can connect up to eight wireless devices simultaneously.
Security
Bluetooth devices rely on device authentication and not user authentication for security. "Non-trusted" devices will be denied outright while "trusted" devices can connect, but still require permission.
